Poetry: A moment

by Charlene Thomas

Created on: July 03, 2009

Awkward!

The silence is thick

The tension is so tight

At any moment this rubber band is going to pop!

Restrained emotion, revealing the cracks in a broken relationship.

Awkward!

The silence is deafening

Crowding my thoughts with anguish as I try, once again

To diffuse this situation.

Should I speak or remain silent?

It is awkward moments like this that make wonder why I even bother

to include you in our relationship.

Awkward!

Aaaahhh!

I'm going to bed!
